Proxies JSON-RPC calls to the Arbitrum Sepolia testnet via QuickNode's blockchain node infrastructure

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability quicknode-a81f81a5 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Call eth_getBalance on Arbitrum Sepolia for address 0xAbCd1234... at block 'latest' using QuickNode's JSON-RPC proxy.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to interact specifically with the Arbitrum Sepolia testnet — for example, testing smart contracts, querying testnet balances, or simulating transactions before mainnet deployment. Prefer this over generic RPC providers when you need a reliable, pay-per-call QuickNode-backed node without managing your own infrastructure.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid JSON-RPC method name returns error code -32601 (method not found)
- Malformed params array returns error code -32602 (invalid params)
- Payment not included or insufficient returns HTTP 402
- Network congestion on Arbitrum Sepolia may cause delayed responses
- Testnet node downtime returns HTTP 503 or connection error
- Requesting finalized state for a very recent block may return null
